Balikpapan Schools & Hospitals

If you are moving to Balikpapan and bringing kids of school age with you, there are several schools that cater to the expatriate community. They are all, however, primary schools. Alternatives will have to be sought for high school students.

Private doctors

In addition, Total and Chevron have private doctors available for their employees who can also be consulted by non-employees for a fee. The well-known chain of professional medical clinics, International SOS, has an office in Balikpapan, although not yet a clinic itself. They employ paramedics, can refer people to doctors and organize medivacs. Their address is Jalan Pupuk Raya No. 54 (0542) 765-966.
